The Remnants of
Me was written from the perspective of thoughts and feelings stemming from my
life’s experiences. Some are very personal experiences and others are
observation reports, but still written from my pens point of view.

Broken down into
chapters in order to carry you with me on a journey through joy, pain, sadness,
hurt, love and a little bit of myself showing off...well just because I can.
My expectation of this book is to affect and help at least one person
within each chapter. I also hope to teach and maybe even be an example to
those who may have self esteem issues or feel that their dreams and goals are
out of reach, to never give up on those aspirations. With hard work,
dedication to your craft as well as having loving and caring people behind you,
ANYTHING is possible. No ceiling is too high to reach, they’re all made
of glass, shattering in an instant if you strive and push hard enough, this
book is proof of that a fore mentioned statement.

The process of
bringing this book to fruition has been a period of self examination and a
learning experience for me as well. It has revealed some of my
weaknesses, growth and potential as both a Poet and as an individual.
Allowing myself to be completely "naked" in some instances has
allowed me to purge some of the emotions that kept me hindered and replace them
with emotions that helped me to reconcile those situations and move forward in
all aspects of my life.

So with much
love and respect...It is my pleasure to now take you on this journey through
The Remnants of Me.

I’d
like to dedicate “The Remnants of Me” my first publication to my parents Mr.
Clifford and Effie Williams, who until a few years ago were unaware of the fact
that I wrote Poetry.Since then Poetry,
as well as any other endeavor I’ve ever undertaken, you have supported me with
not only the love a parent has for their child, but fans as well.For the pride, support and love you have
shown me while striving for my dreams and aspirations, even if that meant
placing yours secondary, I LOVE you both to life and I am equally proudhaving you both as my parents as you are
having me as your child.Cheers to you
both, YOU… are appreciated!~ Troy
